Type W is faster (bandwidth 23 MHz to 8 MHz depending on gain) than its [[Z|Type Z]] predecessor, and it extends performance in terms of sensitivity, reaching 1 mV/div.   
Type W is faster (bandwidth 23 MHz to 8 MHz depending on gain) than its [[Z|Type Z]] predecessor, and it extends performance in terms of sensitivity, reaching 1 mV/div.   
It achieves 20,000 to 1 common-mode rejection at DC and low frequencies.
